We have to be willing to say we fucked up and work hard to change things.

Facts. The patriarchy doesn't protect women. See world for proof.

Religious values don't change what most people do cause it didn't stop slavery, greed, war, ect. Read any religious texts and see how most of the people that "believe it" act. See all of human history for proof.

I would love for this to not be true but it is. I can't help but see the world for what it is. Good people are there but the world needs more. We have to be willing to say we fucked up and work hard to change things. To make this world better we have to be willing to see it for what it is. We can't learn from our mistakes if we deny them.
